Did CNN know – or not care – that discovery of 140-year-old hot dog was a prank?

Maybe CNN didn’t care if it was true because it made for interesting "news" when a 140-year old petrified hot dog was discovered frozen in ice under the soon-to-be-demolished Feltmans Restaurant in Coney Island.

Favorite line from the New York Post article: "Someone should tell CNN that the fire-eaters at Coney Island don’t really eat the fire either."
